Question

how much sleep does a 10 1/2 old need?

Share

My son sleeps from about 8:30/9PM to 6:30AM, takes a bottle, and then sleeps till 7 or 8AM, making his night time total 11-12 hours. Then he takes two naps, totalling approx. 2 1/2- 3 hours. Making his daily total 13 1/2-15 hours of sleep. Is that to much? I'm glad he sleeps so well, is he maybe just in a growth spurt? How much is average for his age?
